But once the screen crashed, I dashed In and ran up the stairs after some deputy sheriffs. I was the first one of the gang to get on the sec ond floor, where Thurmond was lo cated. Four or five of us made the first rush for the cell. The deputies plead ed with us not to take the prisoners. Deputy Bufflngton, the Jailer, with tears streaming down his face, said: "Boys, let us kneel in prayer and pray to God m heaven that you take the right man." One fellow dropped down on his knees at once in the aisle and all the rest of us fellows of the gang all knelt In silent prayer. Then the prayer was broken up when a drunk guy yelled, "Amen, brother Ben " We took the keys away from the deputies and broke into Thurmond's cell on the second floor. We missed seeing him the first two times that we looked. He was hiding up on top of the closet. When we found him one of the guys took him down and he fell, struck his head on the floor. Thurmond never said a word from the time we seized him until he was dead. I think he was faking uncon sciousness. Two officers Identified him for us. We dragged him to the park and tried to make him talk. I lifted his eye lids, and his eyes flickered, and lie showed very plainly that he knew everything that was happening. He was Just playing dead or some thing. Part of the gang rushed Holmes' cell and be told us he was Pierce, but we hsd the goods on him. There was a fellow In the party who knew him and a deputy sheriff also whispered: "Boys, you've got the right fellow." He said afterwards his name was Johnson, but finally admitted he was Holmes. The tear gas dldnt seem to bother me very much. The word got spread around that It was going to be a Santa Clara university atudent lynching. But I'm not a Santa Clara student. I didn't go to college. Probably some of the college boys Joined us, but I think we got most of our recruits from speakeasies. I knew Brooke Hart by sight, but never had spoken to him. I thought that his terrible murder should be avenged. X found that seversl hundred others thought the same thing. Burelsons Return Mr. and Mrs. E.

A hundred are already pulling wires for the Jobs. The return to Tokyo of Japanese Ambassador Debuchl had been delay ed more than a year so as not to appear to be a sharp recall. The root of the trouble was that Japanese mili tarists thought he was not militaristic enough for them. Also there may have been some current feeling In Tokyo that Debuchl should have blocked Russian recognition. The Japanese expect a lot. Perhaps It should be recalled In connection wtlh the Welles yarn that the switch had been In th making since last spring, but that had noth ing to do with the exigencies of the present situation. What perturbed the distillers most was the fact that the man who was running the case for the government appeared to them to be not more than 32 years old. That federal reserve board advis ory report shooting at the Roosevelt dollar policy slipped out in Kew York and not in Washington Those who know the reserve board setup can have only one guess as to who gave it out.
